Hipster can collectors
Today I saw a hipster looking westerner collecting cans in bkk1 in two carrier bags. What is the deal with that, if you end up on the street like the German guy around 172/51 area ok, but if you are just collecting the cans the poor should be getting money for then really I dont get that, what does someone like this give to Cambodia during thier visit? What do you get for that anyway? I heard 100 riel for two cans but that is really just hearsay. If you have to pick cans to buy beer then why are you travelling?
Hipster guy: if you are on here, on someones free wifi, I have a jar if mouy roy notes you can have, no wonder bars are suffering!

If you enjoy noise pollution and obnoxious driving practices, Phnom Penh is the place for you!

If you mean the old short drunk with grey straggly hair german guy, he lives in a guesthouse, not on the street. Bumming drinks and cigarettes and collecting plastic is his chosen careerlordofmisrule wrote: ↑Tue Jan 16, 2018 6:39 pm Today I saw a hipster looking westerner collecting cans in bkk1 in two carrier bags.

He used to live on the street last year, on 172 for a while but he was moved on, if he is in a guesthouse then that is great, he is moving on and up.
Re: Hipster can collectors
The German guy is Manfred, been discussed here or over the other site previously. He's okay, a lot worse than him about and, he doesn't bum beer or cigarettes, always pays his way, usually with a bundle of riel in smaller notes. I heard him tell someone his age one night 55.

Re: Hipster can collectors
I met a barang hippie who would collect cans in kuala lumpur, Turns out he was collecting them to give to other can collectors.frank lee bent wrote: ↑Thu Jan 18, 2018 5:48 pm i offered him money one evening and he refused. seemed annoyed at my offer.
